On draught (anywhere in Bayswater): Deep golden with a smaller, lacy white head; sourish-grainy nose with a tinge of vegetables; light to medium sweetish-sourish flavour, light bodied; short bitter-sourish finish. Drikable, not nice........

Bottle. Pours a clear, dark golden beer with a decent beige head. Some lacings too. Roasted, fruity nose with some caramel sweetness. Full-bodied, with flavors of roasted malt and some caramel sweetness. Pleasant hops giving fruity flavors and a little bitterness. Sweet, roasted finish with some bitterness. As it warms up, it gets some strange malty flavors, so it is best enjoyed quite cold. (081018)

2008-11-11, Cask Conditioned at J. D. Wetherspoon - Shakespear’s Head, London, 6-4-6-3-12=31
Hazy deep blond color, creamy thin head (sprinkler). Delicate Ale, refreshing, a bit malty, soft, lightly fruity, with a touch of apples, both aroma and flavor.
2008-10-09, Cask Conditioned at Woodin’s Shades, London, 5-3-5-3-9=25
Golden color. It has a light apple aroma, which is not very positive. Light body, very light flavor, correct bitterness. Too simple.

Cask, Philarmonic, Liverpool. A beautiful pub....the same can’t be said of this poor effort though. Muddy looking appearance. Insipid, bland and watery. Ill defined malt and not much else happening here. Couldn’t finish, just really boring.

Cask at the Dolphin in Shrewsbury. Nice looking dark golden beer with a tight white head. Fruity taste which disappeared a little quickly and overall the beer was a bit watery, not robust enough. Finish was slightly bitter but not lasting
